 Meeshoo's recommendation | |
Not many, but there are a few cheap items which you could wear as costume jewellery.
Lots of extreme treatments to 'improve' the look of the stones, poorly cut stones, flimsy thin settings that are often wonky, over hyped rarity of certain gems.
I'm unhappy at the selling practices, many items are hyped as rare when in fact they are not and some reasonably good stones are so poorly cut they ruin them. Almost every item I've ever had has had to be returned, items have arrived with cracked stones or seriously included just to keep the size.
Very often stones are named after certain places to achieve a higher price, for example 'Paraiba' Tourmaline....implies it is the expensive rare Brazilian 'Paraiba' when it is in fact from Africa, cheap imitation, and 'Ceylon Pad sapphire is now called Ceylon COLOURED pad sapphire. The coloured diamonds are not natural either so the prices do not match the item, people think they are getting items far greater than in fact they are. I'm disgusted with this channel and wont be using them ever again.
